Pastel Cupcake-Flavored Candies

The New Vanilla Cupcake M&M's Celebrate the Start of Spring

To celebrate the start of spring, Mars recently debuted its new Vanilla Cupcake M&M's. Featuring pastel-hued shells and cupcake-flavor filling, the seasonal candies are the perfect way to indulge.

The new Vanilla Cupcake M&M's are a seasonal treat timed to coincide with the Easter holiday. The new M&M's boast pastel-colored candy shells just like earlier springtime varieties, however, the newest flavor is made with white chocolate instead of milk chocolate. The white chocolate filling is meant to mimic the taste of vanilla cupcakes, for a deliciously different take on the popular candies.

For those interested in getting their hands on the new Vanilla Cupcake M&M's, the tasty springtime treats will only be available at Target. Target will also offer other exclusive Easter treats such as Lindt White Chocolate Citrus Eggs and Peeps Strawberry Confetti Easter Eggs.
